Les paroles


1. AS THE CURTAIN FALLS

Dime a dozen for your thoughts
Think that for yourself
Your mind is a shell allowed to rot.
Opinions generate from your latest friends and scenes.
Never go against what your friends believe.
I heard you laugh.
Now where is your laughter
As this world falls through and under?
It falls apart at its seams.
All your hopes, all your dreams.
You never thought to find some truth.
Just accept there are no absolutes.
You knew too much to care at all but,
Where will you be when the curtain falls?
Now it's all too late, you can't go back
You can't rechoose your fate.
You had your choices, you had nothing to loose.
But, now you lost your choices,
You have nothing left to choose.
If nothing else, put the blame on your friends.
Knowing very will it was all in your own hands,
The curtain falls some surprise, the curtain falls,
Now your world dies.
You don't have to follow all of your friends.
You don't have to go along with all of the trends.
You don't need to be a part of it all.
Where will you be when the curtain falls?


2. THE CALL OF WISDOM

Wait there is something I must show you.
Step into my brain, my thought give out, let me control you
Your life is putty in my hands.
Weak minds, so easy to command.
Apathy has made you my slave.
No more sleeping, awaken to your grave.
Deceiver, my believers. You sold your soul for apathy.
Agnostic lie, for which you die, repeatedly
nail Christ to the tree.
And now you weep, just trying to get some sleep.
A reoccurring nightmare that will never leave.
If this is all I have, then I can't have peace.
You fool, your heart says there is not God.
You fight to save the mess of your life but,
now you see it is too far gone.
Lack of caring on your part has been your hardest fall.
Only through seeking can we learn.
Awaken now to wisdom's call


3. DEFECT

I try to turn my back from the things that trap my mind.
I try to save myself from those things coming from behind.
I wave the banner of victory in my life,
for I derive my strength from Jesus Christ.
And you try to stop me with your hate.
My own friends turn against me they can't relate.
All of this world's substance I must reject.
Turn my back, I must defect.
Lies, the politically correct,
I defect from the ties that bind,
And all of the things that try to change my mind
From the truth and strength I have in Christ.
Which I will hold for the rest of my life.
Despite this worlds foolish lies, I defect.
I defect
From the lie that teaches man to steal,
From the lie that teaches man to kill,
From the lie allowing children to die,
From the lie that beats us and leaves us to die.
I must defect.


4. HUMAN EQUALITY

Complain about everything that we have to say
Equality is preached from every band
When your not like us it's okay to change your stand.
You wouldn't risk hurting your reputation
To come and talk to me. So your run your mouth
Like you know what we're about.
Never willing to sit and work things out.
I should not have expected any more from you.
I thought equality is something that you knew.
I have given out more chances than what was due.
I will think again before I trust you.
Human
